The National Strategy on Green Growth, for the 2011-2020 period, with a vision to 2050, emphasizes the necessity for the construction and development of green buildings, green urban zones and ecological urban areas. This is in alignment with Vietnam’s aspirations for swift and sustainable urban development. As urbanization progresses on the backbone of industrialization, the establishment of functional areas and industrial parks assumes an important role in Vietnam’s socioeconomic advancement through to 2030.
